Misa High Society is the latest from the brand and features six new shades: three super amazing shimmers and three deep cremes.

I didn’t really expect some of these to be as good as they are! The shimmers looked pretty nice in the bottle, but they are much better than I thought. They are so deep and rich. The cremes as well were thick, creamy and smooth. I only needed two coats for all of them. Excellent formula as per usual for this very under-rated brand (one of my fav brands).

Oh and if you like what you see here, read until the bottom because someone will be winning this entire collection!

Well-Heeled Grey, Bourbon On The Rocks, Uptown Glamour

Well-Heeled Grey

Well-Heeled Grey is in fact a deep smokey purple/grey with heavy shimmer. The shimmer is purple, red and blue. The edges tend to look greyish and murky. So pretty, creamy and shimmery.

Bourbon On The Rocks

Bourbon On The Rocks is a deep blackened red/orange shimmer. This one is amazing in person! It’s incredibly deep, and looks like it’s on fire. Really gorgeous shade, reminds me a lot of some of the old Duri shades I love so much. The camera does not do it justice, it’s mesmerizing.

Uptown Glamour

Uptown Glamour is dark blackened purple/blue/red. This is really hard to describe because the base is like an inky blue but the shimmer is red and purple. But also somehow blue. Incredible shade, reminds me a lot of OPI Every Month Is Oktoberfest (I haven’t compared them yet).

Tailored Taupe, Trust Fund, It Girl

Tailored Taupe

Tailored Taupe is a very dark taupe/brown creme. Ok it’s not really taupe, more like a medium chocolate brown. Either way it’s really shiny, creamy and smooth. Love it because I love me some good brown nail colors!

Trust Fund

Trust Fund is a medium/deep grey creme. It’s a blue-ish grey shade and applied a bit sheer at first but really two coats is all you need. In certain lighting it almost looks like a green/grey color. Nice!

It Girl

It Girl is a very dark vampy purple creme. Nearly looks black, but not quite. Again, super creamy formula and smooth as glass. Maybe not unique though.

Overall: Well I think you can tell that the shimmers were my favorites here. All three are just gorgeous shades but I especially am enamored with Bourbon On The Rocks and Uptown Glamour. I have no complaints about the cremes, but I don’t think the shades are quite as interesting.

Hi Kelly! I totally agree with you Misa is very under-rated. And I also love the shimmers in this collection!
My year started wonderfully. I was on holiday in Argentina, but coming back last weekend was sooooo hard! and getting back to the routine was even harder 😛
but all good things come to an end…

Oh my goodness, I need Trust Fund and It Girl.
My 2013 has already been.. interesting. I broke the screen of my laptop on January 1st D: Everything else is pretty great!
I’m about halfway through “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.” It’s really interesting, there’s a lot of information about scent making, perfumeries in 1700’s (I think) France, and yes some murders.
Thank you for the giveaway!

What a great collection! 2013 has been pretty busy so far. Just started a postgraduate program here in Australia. In my spare time, I am reading Bleak House by Charles Dickens on my Kindle and my collection of Alexander McCall Smith’s works, mainly “The No 1 Ladies Detective Agency”.

Thanks.

My 2013 is going ok, better if I could find a new job! I’m currently reading Ordinary Men, which is depressing and about Nazis, but really interesting.

my new year is a brand new start for my baby girl and i. we are off to a new state and a new life.

2013…I know it’s old and tired…but I am on my way to losing the last 10 lbs and since it’s already underway, it’s a resolution! I turned the big four-oh in 2012 and I am determined to be 40 and fabulous…and my happy weight!

I love all those polishes. Beautiful colors. Have never seen this brand in Norway were I live.

Absolutely love all of these but, weirdly for me, I like the first grey one with the pinky shimmer the best!

REALLY want to try me some Misa but really hard to get hold of here in the UK! 🙁

AndreaC
January 7, 2013 at 3:26 PM

Hi Kelly! I totally agree. Misa is one of my favorite brands and indeed very under-rated. My favorites are Bourbon on the Rocks and Uptown Glamour. I’m in a vampy red/burgundy “phase” now… 🙂 Do you also go through what I call my “color phases”, when you keep wearing variations of the same colors?

TropicalChrome
January 7, 2013 at 3:28 PM

You are not kidding about the shimmers – wow. Just wow. I would like to know how Uptown Glamour compares to Every Month Is Oktoberfest, but it’s still amazingly gorgeous :).

I love that Uptown Glamour! such an interesting combination of shades.

Have been great so far. I wanted to ask you to join me on twitter I m helping to sign petitions against animal cruelty and put scumbags in jail. Like the one that burned that puppy alive wont repeat his name to not make him more famous. I feel that helping with this causes help those that are still alive. I think we need to work together , everyday we hear more atrocities done to poor dogs and cats It is just disgusting. Spread the word RT , Sign, denounce and help. It is so great feeling triying to help them those without voice to stand for themselves. At the same time is painfull to see how Humans can be how cruel and more if they have used drugs.
@godhild81MA

Those shimmers are really pretty! But those creams are nice too. So far, this year is starting out good. Son went back to school today, my schedule is getting back to normal, all is good. 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!

Well, I’ve almost finished a lovely little book called Zombies vs. Unicorns. It’s a collection of zombie and unicorn short stories, and I really love it! All the authors manage to be inventive with their respective subjects, and turn the cliches on their heads. I highly recommend it!JMTolman´s last post…CUSTOM NECKLACE 21×30 mm Hand Painted Necklace by JMTolman

January 7, 2013 at 3:56 PM

Oh wow, amazing shimmers indeed! Bourbon on the Rocks looks like the perfect pick-me-up shade during a long, cold Swedish winter with a pesky flu.
I always read a lot, and am fortunate enough to do it for work as well as play since I record audio books for a living. I am currently working on a great biography of Ella Fitzgerald, which makes me appreciate the nuances of jazz more – and hey, that ties in nicely with bourbon as well, both the drink and the street 🙂 Thanks for a great nail blog!

2013 so far…the year of the migraine that put me in the fetal position. Labrador barking as I type this because I’m not paying attention to him. Obviously that barking does wonders for the migraine situation.

Hey! Those first 3 colors are AMAZING! I would love to win the whole set 🙂
So for 2013, its back to school monday & I feel like someone just jammed the fast foward button! everything is just happening so fast…its definately going to be an interesting year.Eugenie´s last post…Misa High Society for Winter 2012 Swatches, Review & Giveaway!

Lovely collection. I have a NP related resolution for 2013. I am going to try to be more selective when it comes to buying polishes this year. My personal collection has bloomed over the last year and I really need to pull in the reins. If I purchase anything from this collection it would be Bourbon On The Rocks – it is the most unique and I don’t think I have anything like it already.

suzanne
January 7, 2013 at 4:10 PM

Really nice colors here! I was thinking the same about the OPI dupe possibility! So far my 2013 has been full of headaches and migraines, not cool. Hopefully it won’t stay that way!

Morgan
January 7, 2013 at 4:12 PM

These polishes are so beautiful!! Im really trying to thin my stash but these polishes can find their way in some how!

Wow!!! Those shimmers are incredible!!! I don’t own any of this brand and don’t even know where to find them here in Alberta, Canada but those are incredible and is love to have those!!! The cremes are quite nice as well. Very radiantly surprised by this collection and I’d be soooo pleased if I won this giveaway! 😀

Hope your 2013 is going well so far!

The metallic shimmery shades look amazing! I have OPI’s every month is Oktoberfest and love it, too.

I love the trust fund color and Bourbon on the rocks. As part of my New Year’s Resolutions, I am going to pull my polish out of their boxes and use them for a change. I am hoping that lucky number 13 will pick up for me, but I know it is better that 2012 was already. Thanks for the chance to win these colors!

My new year (all seven days of it) has been pretty lovely so far. I’ve spent the entire thing with my guy, we were house-sitting for his best friend for about a week. It was like an amazing little vacation. 🙂 I had my first ever meaningful New Years kiss, too! And since mid-August I’ve just been visiting him and I’m a little shocked to say he hasn’t gotten sick of me yet, and neither has his very loving family. All in all, I think this is going to be one of the best years yet!
Ironically, my favorite color here is Bourbon on the Rocks. Ironic, because my guy’s tumblr is serotonin-on-the-rocks.
Although Well-Heeled is a super intriguing color, I love that it greys out when it’s not in direct light. How uniquely gorgeous is that!?

Hope everyone else is having an awesome start to their new year as well. (:

I have been wanting to try Misa polish for a little while now, so I’m happy to get the opportunity to win an entire ( beautiful! ) collection!

Bourbon On The Rocks makes me think of the time my cell auto corrected from “hour” to “bourbon”. The message read, I’ll be there in a few bourbons.” Of course, my friend knew I was driving to meet her.

Thanks for the giveaway, btw! I might have to give these a try after seeing your awesome swatches!

The shimmers are pretty stunning! I’ve been wanting to try Misa for years but I haven’t been much for ordering nail polish online so I haven’t yet.
As for my year so far, my husband has just left for a month long class which sucks. The upside though is that I’ll be spending part of it with my family who I haven’t seen in 2 years, so I’m obviously pretty excited about that!

These are lovely! I’m especially loving Bourbon on the Rocks. I also love that they’re cruelty free!
2013 has been treating me well thus far. Not much has happened yet, but I’m still on Christmas break so it’s nice to just have downtime. 🙂June´s last post…WIZARD NAILS. Rainbow Honey ‘Mare of the Moon’

The end of 2012 was awful, and I’m really hoping 2013 will be better. I’m reading about four books from the library at once!

January 7, 2013 at 9:24 PM

Back in middle school, a friend and I did a nail polish swap, and she gave me a near empty bottle of Misa. It was the first square shaped nail polish bottle I had ever seen. The color was Merry Widow – this really bright pink. It became my sister’s favorite and I’m so glad I kept it because it was a goopy mess and I didn’t know what to do with it until I became obsessed with nail blogs and found out about nail polish thinner. 🙂

2013 has started off fairly poorly for me! I spent most of the year so far sick in bed. At least that means there’s nowhere to go but up, right?! 😀Erin M.´s last post…China Glaze Swanky Silk

2013 has been treating me quite well so far…been 7 days so far…haven’t done much…:P

Alicia
January 7, 2013 at 10:59 PM

I still can’t believe it’s 2013…! I still haven’t stopped dating things as 2012 yet. Hopefully I snap out of it soon!

2013 started off with me being locked out of the house I was dog sitting for and having to call a locksmith!! Not the best start but could have been worse! These polishes are now on my wish list which is getting dangerously long!

I don’t have any resolutions for this year, since I never managed to keep them, so it makes no sense having them 🙂 I’m reading the fantasy series Kingdoms of Thorne and Bone – not bad, but not near as great as GOT.

I really love this collection from Misa! This brand is always so good. I recently finished reading A Dance With Dragons by George RR Martin, and I can’t wait for the next book in the series!

The year started not bad, but I’m looking forward to the weekend, I’ve got next week off!
At the moment I’m re-reading the Bartimaeus-trilogy by Jonathan Stroud (first volume right now, and he wrote a fourth book, so it’s a quadrilogy now).

Merveilleux !!!!
I don’t know this brand, but colors are just amazing, especially the 3 shimmering ones.

Thanks a lot for this give away.

Jessica
January 8, 2013 at 12:00 AM

Yay for the shimmers! I agree with you that the cremes are a bit meh, even though they are perfect colors for winter!

Wow. Great giveaway. Misa is one of my favourite brands ever. So hard to find in the UK in shops. Always have to order it online and I’m giving up online polish purchases for 2013.

Along with giving up wine! Not a drop has touched my lips since New Year’s Eve. There’s a Cancer Research campaign here called Dryathlon. Don’t drink in January and guarantee to give everything you saved to charity. I’m a Dryathlete. A great idea. I benefit and the charity benefits too.

In 2013, I want to dare to step out of my comfort zone, to pursue what I like but previously might not have dared, and most of all to enjoy and persevere in it even if I seem to not do so well in it!

January 8, 2013 at 4:09 AM

I love your blog. Whenever I try to see a swatch of a polish, I immediately search for yours. 2013 is starting off just OK for me – it has been very cold here in NH; warming up this weekend. I haven’t had a chance to read much, but I’ve owned a Kindle for several years and download lots of free books. I don’t usually make goals, but for 2013, I would like to try to expand my experience with nail polish and try different brands besides drugstore brands. You noted that Misa is one of your favorite brands, so I would be excited to try it. Good luck everyone!

January 8, 2013 at 4:27 AM

Wow all the shades are so pretty!

My 2013 wasn’t that great until Sunday morning, when I found out the NHL lock out had ended! I finally get to see my team play again for the first time since May!

Kristy
January 8, 2013 at 4:29 AM

The shades are gorgeous and makes me wish Misa’s available around my area. I’m currently reading Falling Angels by Tracy Chevalier and I definitely recommend it. Have a lovely year ahead 🙂

Audrey
January 8, 2013 at 4:53 AM

WOW. I love all of those colours!

I just finished reading Catch-22, which is one of the funniest books I’ve ever read. I’d definitely recommend it!

Rachel Chee
January 8, 2013 at 4:54 AM

Winter or not, I would definitely wear these colours!

Kate
January 8, 2013 at 5:19 AM

My New Year’s resolution is to wear makeup more often. I really haven’t bothered since the pregnancy and birth of my kid. I’d forgotten how wearing even a little nude eyeshadow can make you feel more pretty, put together and ready to face the day!

I am not usually a red nail polish person, but Bourbon On The Rocks – WOW.

and happy 2013!

Amanda
January 8, 2013 at 6:46 AM

Uptown Glamour is gorgeous! My favorite of the bunch.

January 8, 2013 at 6:47 AM

Love well-heeled grey and bourbon on the rocks!!!!
def will be looking for these.
My resolution is to let go of the little things, its just not worth it.
And to stop buying so much nail polish, lol but with this collection doesn’t look like this resolution will be holding up for long!

Irina
January 8, 2013 at 6:54 AM

I want them all!
I like Misa, I’ve Envy Green and like it a lot.
i’m reading Foucault’s Pendulum by Umberto Eco.

Oh man, those shimmers. I’m really into clean, bold graphic makeup, and I would extend that to my nails, too (only going for cream colors). But after reading so many of your nail polish reviews, I’m hooked on shimmers! You have the best swatches for nail polishes, btw. Love the site!

I just officially graduating after taking my last class during winter break! That was soooo difficult to change my frame of mind between “holidays!” and “homework . . .”

And now . . . grad school might be in my future 🙂

Becca
January 8, 2013 at 7:47 AM

I love those polishes!

2013 began with me getting sick! Hopefully it will get better and will lead to me getting the job I interviewed for yesterday (while sick!)

Holy smokes! Uptown Glamour has captured my heart. Must have for sure!
2013 is going to be a good year for me. This is the year that I make life changes. I’ve been stagnant for far too long. This is the year for life improvements!

Breanna Burns

So far my 2013 has been pretty uneventful..which works for me 🙂

My year is pretty good so far, had one hell of an exam today but I think I fared rather well, o your giveaway only adds to my current joy 🙂

January 8, 2013 at 9:11 AM

Just finished Beautiful Creatures, and I’m starting Among Others by Jo Walton. 2013 is starting out SO much better than 2012! I hope yours is great! (I’m drooling over the shimmers…)

Adriana Sevila
January 8, 2013 at 9:12 AM

I love these colors so much. this is my last semester of college. Its going to be the most testing semester yet because I have to take extra credits to not pay for extra classes. My resolution is to be brave and dive into my fear of this semester and conquer the bumps that lay in my road.

Allison H.
January 8, 2013 at 9:21 AM

I really loved Uptown Glamour! I think this collection is perfect. I’m not one to wear bright colors on my fingers (save the neons for the toes) so this would be perfect for me!

Katie
January 8, 2013 at 9:34 AM

Sigh, I love dark colors. I wear them all year round, not just in the winter. I started wearing black in my awkward tween phase and my mom would comment on how I was “trying to look gothic” or how it “was just a phase”, but my love for dark polish has persisted into adulthood. I’ve since branched out into purples and blues, in fact purple is my favorite polish color now, but really anything dark will do.

Well-heeled grey is so gorgeous! That is the one I’m lemming.

Ieva
January 8, 2013 at 9:38 AM

Wow, thank you for the awesome giveaway! The colors are gorgeous, especially Bourbon On The Rocks <3

Hello. I love all of these, but Bourbon on the rocks is just gorgeous! I don’t really have a resolution for this year, just hope it’s better than 2012 and that it allows me to do my thing (my masters degree in Medieval history, scubba diving and being around my cats lol) and be happier (not that the last year was bad or anything) and around my family more.
Good year to you all! 🙂

January 8, 2013 at 9:49 AM

This is an amazingly lovely set – all dark and deep colours, which I would very much like to try out! Right now I have on Nubar Wildlife, which is a pretty funky duochrome. All the best from the UK – keep up the great blog!

How pretty! Right now I am listening to Matched. I’m a bit embarrassed that I’m 39 and reading YA fiction… but it’s good!Sasha´s last post…NOTD: Color Club Cherubic

My new year has been horrible, death in the family, and a broken leg – all on the 1st! New polish would certainly brighten things up!

Melody
January 8, 2013 at 10:15 AM

OMG, Bourbon on the Rocks is tdf! I love lit from within colors. My 2013 is starting off okay. I’ve started reading about 12 books :P. No idea how quickly I’ll finish them since I just bought a giant anthology of Chinese literature.

Kristina Vieweg
January 8, 2013 at 10:21 AM

ALL of those are gorgeous! I usually dont like shimmers, but those are beautiful! And my 2013 is going great (so far)! Thank you!

Holy cow Well-Heeled Grey is ridiculously sexy looking! I can see rocking Bourbon on the Rocks on Valentine’s Day.

2013 has been good to me so far. My job situation has a sudden change. Like Parks & Rec level sort of better. I’ve been itching for a new adventure. If some real life representation of Ron Swanson also graces me with his/her presence in this new career direction it would be icing on the cake.

January 8, 2013 at 10:46 AM

I have three resolutions this year: to be healthier; to play more poker; and to purge a little bit of my polish stash.

My 2013 resolution is to be more positive & I positively LOVE Well-Heeled Grey! These are such beautiful polishes…thanks for the photos & for the giveaway! =]Khalei´s last post…Nails Inc. – Whitehall Magnetic Polish

I looooove the shimmery shades in this collection.

As for New Year’s resolutions, instead of making ones I know I won’t keep, I tried to make a realistic one: I’m going to buy nail polish in 2013 anyway, so I decided that I only want to buy from indie polish makers this year. WIsh me luck!

Bonnie
January 8, 2013 at 11:01 AM

Bourbon on the Rocks is gorgeous! My New Year’s resolution is to workout at least 4X/week. Consistency with working out has been my issue in the past, so I hope to overcome it this year!

Caramel
January 8, 2013 at 11:15 AM

I looooove this collection! I do have a few Misa polishes such as Toxic Seduction, but the new shimmers are stunning!!!

It is not often that I love all of a collection but wow! I need them all so hopefully I win ^_^ My 2013 is going great, my children are healthy, my husband has a fantastic job that he works hard at and I am diving into my second semester in my Masters program.

Sarah Turner
January 8, 2013 at 11:46 AM

I LOVE blackened colors like these. I’m in bed, sick (again) and your post made me forget about my illness. I’d love to win this as Saturday is my birthday but I can’t afford to do anything.

I’m reading Eric Clapton’s biography, I know nothing about guitar playing, so some of his tech talk is over my head, but, overall a great read.

Love Bourbon on the Rocks – will have to be part of my collection!

Thanks! Happy New Year!

January 8, 2013 at 11:53 AM

Ahh just found your blog a few days ago and I absolutely love it. These polishes from Misa are amazing! I’ve never seen or tried them. Great work on all your hard work – I look forward to seeing more of you in my e-mail box. 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway btw!

So far so good… book club tonight on Gone Girl… enjoyed it and would recommend. Now on to read The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. So far so good… really enjoying it so far. Super interesting and I’m sure it will be a great discussion book with the debate of progress versus privacy and rights. Happy New Year!

So far, 2013 sucks for me; I’m depressed. I started the year off with a compound fracture in my shoulder and a broken arm; OUCH! It hurts to type! I really think a bottle of Bourbon on the Rocks might help! Thanks for the giveaway, Kelly.

I ended 2012 and began 2013 with a crazy cold, but I am finally getting better! Great swatches…you’re right, Misa is seriously underrated! I recently got a few colours from the Breakaway collection and they are awesome!!

Victoria S Andrews
January 8, 2013 at 12:18 PM

Wow 300 comments, althought I don’t stand a chance please enter me to win your Misa giveaway. I love all the colors, especially Bourbon on the Rocks. I feel it in my bones that 2013 is going to be a great year.

January 8, 2013 at 12:32 PM

Thanks for doing this giveaway! I am in love with the vampy colors right now. Also, I like your mix of some non-nail polish reviews with a touch of cat pictures, very nice!

My goal this year is starting and getting used to my new job! I’ll be starting something else within the company next week which’ll be a huge challenge as I don’t have any experience in it yet.. exciting!

My 2013 has been alright so far…just super hectic and exhausting. I feel like I’m still recovering from Christmas time lol. Thanks for the giveaway! xo

Wow! The 3 shimmers are amazing! And the cremes are beautiful too.

January 8, 2013 at 12:47 PM

My 2013 has been pretty rough so far. There’s been a few misunderstandings/disagreements between myself and people that I care about. I feel pretty lost and down about the start of this year. I just want it not to set a precedent for the rest of my year. Here’s hoping 😉 in happier news, Bourbon On The Rocks is GORGEOUS!!!!

Wow they are all beautiful! I like Misa, I wish the (new) collections would be more easily available here! (I only own 3 from the Spring 2012 collection, thanks to Trans Design!
I just got my new running shoes in (Nike Free), I am hoping to start running, I got mp3s that help you (with when to run and take a walking break, and music with the ‘right’ bpm). Since I already do quite intensive training twice a week I don’t know if I will be able to also do running three times a week, but I hope so. Another one of my resolutions for this year is also to learn Japanese! It is really something you have to plan and make time for (like a few evenings a week, really study for an hour), so I really have to do that too, haha. And then I am also finishing up on my Master this year, so that also means that I have to look for a job! Lots of wants and have-to’s this year! (And now I’m probably blabbing too much!)

I really like “Bourbon on the Rocks.” I don’t think I have anything like it.

We bought an old house, and are remodeling it. We hope to get ALL the drywall up this winter. My kitties think we have gone nuts. First we tear out all the walls, then we put them back up,. They spend most of the day hiding in the closets, lol, poor dears.

This year started nice, I went skiing, hit my head a little but everything is fine. I recommend the book “The Book Thief” for everyone who is in love with words and their heartbreaking effect.D´s last post…Will come through

These are gorgeous colors! So far 2013 has been pretty good, I’m just exhausted from Dec. I need an extra month to just rest…so then I can face 2013 head on with my eyes wide open, we can call that month “Restuary” or Restember 😉

January 8, 2013 at 3:02 PM

Well-Heeled Grey, Bourbon On The Rocks, Uptown Glamour are must haves for me. I could really take or leave the creams.

I’m now intrigued with the “The Book Thief” that D mentioned. But until then, I have a ton of books on my bookshelves that I need to delve into first. I have a heart wrenching book that I want to read, but I don’t know if I want to start off the new year reading that one. I’ll probably start with something else like “Fireflies in December”.

Reading is actually one of the things I want to work on and do more of in this new year.

I love ur blog! I hope 2013 will be as fruitful for you and me as I wish for us and health+happiness for all!

So far 2013 is good. I’m back at school which means waking up at 6 am again :[ but so far i love my classes and my professors. I have a class with one of my favorite professors, and this is my third class with him so I’m pretty excited.

Misa polish bottles are my first bottle shape ideal. They’re just perfection imo. It’s also nice that the polish IN the bottles is usually gorgeous as well. 😉

Anne
January 8, 2013 at 8:32 PM

My 2013? Well, I was supposed to be married on Dec 29, 2012 but my fiancé called me at 6am on the morning of from the hospital as he was being wheeled into his CT scan! Turns out he needed an emergency appendectomy and our entire wedding and honeymoon had to be cancelled. I’m still pretty sad about it but am cheering myself up by fantasizing about winning new nail polishes! Is it wrong that the worst part of canceling the honeymoon is that I didn’t get to indulge at CCO? I don’t have one in Edmonton, and was soooo looking forward to discounted, discontinued cosmetics shopping!!! 🙂

Rachel
January 8, 2013 at 8:44 PM

I don’t usually look twice at most reds. I have so many nail polishes, that I swear i have every shade of red there is! That red (Bourbon on the rocks) though, is truly gorgeous. It really does seem to be lit from within. Wow.

Shannon
January 8, 2013 at 10:03 PM

Those look amazing already in the photos, I can’t wait to see what they do in person!

These are gorgeous colors. Thx for the giveaway. This year I really would love to get more organized. I’ve been watching organizational videos to get ideas. I love the DYI videos & things you can make your self to help get organized. The only thing I organize is my polish maybe I should do my entire life like that. 😉
Thx again for this giveaway.

i love these! especially uptown glamour and trust fund. TF reminds me of Beyond Jealous from the nail collab JS Choi did with MAC in the fall of 2009. i loved that so well and then passed it off to a friend but would love to have something similar back in my stash ^^

2013 started by me destroying my nails. Ugh, what a shame. So, for the rest of the year I’m going to try not to do that again. I’ve also begun a pretty healthy obsession with accumulating nail polishes. Ha! Of course.

Well-Heeled Grey looks like another paradoxal dupe, but so pretty. My fav is Burbon on the Rocks a must have. Does anyone know any retailers that sell MISA in the midwest?Mrs. Miagi´s last post…ROAD TRIP: BALTIMORE MARYLAND – PART 2

I haven’t purchased a Misa in years, but this collection has some real eye-catchers. My favorite Misa of all time -Passion 4 Fashion.

Wow, these are great. I’ve never tried this brand, but it looks like a good one.

January 9, 2013 at 7:23 AM

I love these, so dark and rich. I haven’t tried this brand before so I will be checking their website. My New Year’s resolution is to de-clutter everything!

These look really nice! I’ve still never tried Misa.

Danielle Child
January 9, 2013 at 8:45 AM

As a child, I’ve always had a bad habit for nail biting till I decided for my 2012 new years resolution, I would stop biting my nails and take more care of them . Now its 2013, I have got to say it was easier than what I thought. I thought I wouldn’t have been able to stop the habit! But it just goes to show anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
During last year, I actually became really into nail polish and have been collecting since the summer. I have also attempted to do nail art and my most favorite so far has to be leopard print. I’m hoping to create my own blog to post pictures of my nail art and show people how my nail art has progressed.
This collection is amazing! All 6 colours are really nice there’s none of them I can fault. This brand is definitely under-rated, its a shame they don’t sell it in my area.
My 2013 new years resolution will certainly be to carry on looking and try out Misa Nail Lacquers.

My non-school/health related goal of the year is to actually blog about nail polish! haha it’s actually really hard blogging, i have new respect for all the beauty blogs I follow after drafting and deleting like 20 posts.mona´s last post…Summer 2012

As for the new year, I don’t typically do resolutions. I have set a general goal of not procrastinating as much when it comes to studying and schoolwork.Amanda´s last post…Amy’s Nail Boutique Happy Holly-days

Gorgeous shades!
I’ve gotten addicted to shinies as these as due to occasional hand eczema my hands are pretty scarred, even my scars have scars, at least pretty nails distracts me from that. Last year my fingers were itching like mad for the final 3-4 months and only recently healed.
I had tried everything AND the kitchen sink to fix it. Working in an organic store with many friendly customers, I got the one home remedy after the other flung at me.
The only thing I refused to try was a nice lady’s reccomendation of boiling one’s own urine and using it as ointment.

I don’t shake hands with her anymore.

If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t even know it existed, so thank you! I am excited for 2013 because I have so many plans! Going to buy a house, car and all those super expensive life purchases that you spend so long saving up for! Thank you for the opportunity to win this beautiful collection! Happy 2013 !! 🙂

This is an amazing collection! I just finished reading Kill Alex Cross on my new kindle paperwhite! Thanks for the Giveaway!

I have no access to Misa where I live so I’m super psyched about this giveaway! Thanks!

My 2013 so far has been pretty exciting. I got engaged right before New Years and it’s just been craziness since! I think I’m still in the stunned phase of this process but I’m excited to see where it goes!

I love dark vampy colors! I would wear them all year round! I’ve never seen or heard of this brand but it looks beautiful, I’m always hesitant to try new brands but I would definitely try these babies out !

My new year is starting to get better as I kicked off the new year with the really bad respiratory cold thing that has been going around to everyone it seems. I just went back to school for my (hopefully) last semester before I get my Bachelor’s degree. Hope the year is being kind to you so far as well.

My new years resolution is to lose weight, it is every year but this year I am engaged and planning my wedding…Hopefully that’s enough motivation to help me stick with..:-)

Wow, those shimmers are really something! I’m pretty sure if I don’t win, those babies will be making their way over to my stash anyway!

Winning this collection would make the start of my 2013 perfect! Well heeled grey is absolutely stunning. All of my favorite polishes are made by Misa!

Gorgeous colors! Bourbon on the rocks is def my favorite! I wonder why Misa has lately taken such a backseat on most blogs. I feel it used to be featured a lot more! A shame!

2013 has started out super busy! Sad to say I haven’t had time for one manicure – stamped or otherwise – yet. 🙁

I’m not late, am I…? 🙂 amazing shades in this collection!

I’m loving well-heeled grey and uptown glamour!
My new year resolution is to keep myself organized better. If I’m more organized, I’ll be less stressed, I’ll have less headaches, and I’ll have better grades!

Nice collection! This 2013…. mmmh I have a lot of polishes to try!!! 🙂

2013 is going great. Almost three months with my job at Lancôme! So happy and excited.

OMG those shimmers are to die for!! Sigh. I’ll wait to see if I win and then order them if I don’t, lol. So far 2013 is good! One of my resolutions is to be more positive and if I don’t have something nice to say, to not say anything at all. So far it’s working out okay as long as I’m not at work, haha! Hope your new year is going well so far, Kelly. Thanks for the giveaway!

Started doing my nails on a regular basis a few months ago and it hasn’t taken me long to get addicted to polish! Been purchasing a few polishes every week for a while now and have started stamping, stripeing, and water marbling too. Don’t own any collections, so if I win this it will be my first collection! Thanks!

OMG These shimmers are so gorgeous!! I’m keeping my fingers crossed…
About my 2013 resolutions…So far I’ve been able to stick to “carefully remove make up every evening” but I have a lot to work on “improve make up skills” and “be positive” 🙂Aly MaiSenzaSmalto´s last post…Teaser: All the Rainbow Ladies (put a polish on it)

My year is ok so far. I’m dealing with annoying horrible anemia but so far it’s going great otherwise. I’m talking more with old friends from high school and doing good on my new years resolution so, so far so good.

I haven’t heard of Misa but the swatches are impressive! Mad love for the Well-Heeled Grey, it’s like a brighter version of Illamasqua’s Baptiste 🙂

well as for 2013… just survived a law exam, would love to have these babies as a reward!! 😀

Lovely swatches~ I do not own any Misa polishes, since they are not available where I live so I’d love to win these babies! Hoping 2013 will be an awesome year, and my resolution is to exercise at least a little each day!
